Looking for some advice from the old-timers here. I'm new to this forum and have been posting a few dubs over at the Video Moods page. I knew very little about Library Music until I found this group—it's a black hole of information and I love it. But I'm an accidental collector—I didn't expect to fall into this.
I'm a writer who just released a 100-year history of WMBI and Moody Radio in Chicago (you can find it online if you poke around).
In the process of working on the book, I inherited the sound effects library of WMBI, a collection of 500+ 78 rpm records (a nearly complete set of Standard Sound Effects, lots of Speedy and Major Records, plus the nearly complete set of Video Moods).
It's like I've opened King Tut's tomb and I'm surrounded by these accidental treasures, but I don't have time to give it the attention it deserves. I collect other records on purpose—10,000 gospel 78s and LPs—that will always be my focus and main interest. So I need to find a home my library music...and I'm looking for any advice you guys might offer.
